Please remember His Eminence, Metropolitan Nicholas of Amissos, in you prayers. He has had a difficult winter and as the Great Fast comes to a close and Pascha draws near, pray that he may be restored to good health in order to continue with his service to God and His Church. Axios! Lord, have mercy.

Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.—St. Isaac of Syria

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Who can watch the watchmen?"No one is paying attention to your post reports"Why do posters that claim to have me blocked keep sending me pms and responding to my posts? That makes no sense.

This Sunday, the faithful of our Diocese were informed that His Eminence, Metropolitan Nicholas of Amissos (ACROD) was undergoing chemotherapy and was cancelling his fall schedule of pastoral visitations as his cancer has returned. Please remember the Metropolitan in your prayers.

Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.—St. Isaac of Syria
